" You know my head's too soft and my lifes to hard."

"We're all a little broken. We're all a little twisted. We're all less than we could be or want to be. "

"a good woman will pick you apart
a box full of suggestions for your possible heart
and you may be offended. and you may be afraid
but don't walk away, don't walk away"

I know there's chains wrapped around your body

why do you think you are nobody?

I've found you here inside this cave

saying there's no way you can ever be saved

Did you even try to be brave?

Why do you sit, crouching in the dark

when your only intention is to depart?

Your nothing but skin and bone

all broken and alone

your heart turned into stone

I know I could save you,if I really tried

but you are destined to meet your own demise.

You were born an origanal why die a copy?The secret to success is the consistency to pursue.To the world you may be one person,but to one person you may be the world.To receive the right answer,you must ask the right question.Don't worry be happy! :)
